Awesome is right. Hasbro should hire the animator: with a little practice (the animation was admittedly jiggly) I'll bet they could actually help make the show.
Yow. That's some of the best animation I've seen so far from a fan-related entry. Yet they're not fans? Woah. Also, the actress performing Pinkie is amazing! I lol'd, I loved!
That was absolutley brilliant. The voices, the animation, the gag.
This fanbase is so creative and skilled creating incredible fanworks whether it's fanart or video games or snowponies so we get kinda spoiled and take it for granted when these things pop up.
That animation was awesome, I was just watching the way Pinkie bounced around so smoothly! Also the voices are brilliantly accurate. Was so scared about the dude with the gun though, seeing AJ at the end was a relief!
Cartoon gunpowder violence at its finest, right there!
Also, no relation between and and the animated farmer (I kind of wish though, since then I could visit him and by extension all the ponies).
Also also, I loved all the farmer's names for Pinkie Pie, my favorite one being 'Cheesecake". Oh, Farmer Brown, if you had ever gone onto the internet, you'd find out just how much Pinkie Pie cheesecake artwork is out there...
Finally, I laughed at the 'technicolor donkeys' line, although I almost want to slap him and say, they're too small to be donkeys!' But then he'd probably just call them burros or the like.
The animation is great, though you can tell the person responsible for this video is not very involved with the show.
More importantly, that overgrown monkey just spat on Fluttershy! Some things you just don't do, and THAT is certainly such thing. I say we send him to the Moon, its the only way to be sure.
I just looked up that Pinkie Pie VA and it's apparently the same one that's going to be in the Fighting is Magic game: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sfP2H_kw_9Q
And the animation is awesome! The voices are pretty dead on (save maybe for Applejack's her's is just a little off) and the animation has a great bouncy quality to it (especially in the case of Pinkie, which is quite appropriate).
A bit overly animated, but overall fantastic. The jokes were good and the characterizations were spot on considering it apparently wasn't done by a fan.
I laughed at the well-washed window joke more than anything. If only I could find a pegasus recovering on the ground the next time I hear something slam into my window, instead of another dead bird. Although the detailed dust silhouette one left behind was kinda funny, since that bird flew away.
The animation is kind of... wibbly wobbly. Not terrible, but way too much movement. Too much so, kept bothering me throughout. However the writing and VOs were good.
Oh Farmer Brown, I'd be surprised if they let you into the Hospital with that shotgun. +1 for cartoon logic.
Ha ha, this is fabulous! And I see no one has pointed out what I consider to be one of the best lines in there: "Oh! And he has this big blue tractor, too! I've seen him racing around the yard in it at about two and a half miles per hour - SO INTENSE!"
OMG, i bucking loved this! the animation was good, the voices were great, and overall was amazing. you guys did an awesome job and i give you a hooves up ^_^
Hey, this was probably the best fan animation yet. Like everyone said, the animation was a bit odd at times, but even so, the fluidity of it is much better than most. Also it was good to hear something with original lines rather than just sound clips from the show.
One of the best and funniest animation shorts I have seen to date....and the ending was hilarious, nice refrence to the Looney Tunes! I love this fandom....
Just a re-post of what I said in the Youtube comments:
I wasn't sure whether to be horrified, laugh, scream, or be impressed by the ridiculously GOOD voice acting and animation. However, the ending decided for me; I laughed and I laughed hard ^_^ Poor AJ; I'm glad that earth ponies seem to be nigh indestructible. Great work on everything.
Holy shit that animation... Other than pinkie pie flopping about a bit too much, holy freaking hell that is astounding. Twilight and Fluttershy looked great!
My eye twitched maniacally when he spat on Fluttershy, but at the same time, I was laughing at the exact same thing...I think I'll go cut myself now...
At first I laughed then when I heard that gun go off my heart dropped. But to see applejack with a blackened face and her mane blown back I was joining in with Twi,Pinkie and Fluttershy laughing.
All these comments about the animation. I myself commented that there's more overlapping action (animation term--google it) in that short than an entire episode of the actual show (maybe not that much of an exaggeration).
But it seems that nobody looked really hard at the animators' YouTube profile.
These guys didn't use Flash...
...they've been using Anime Studio Debut. A program you can buy for under $50, without even trying hard. And made that caliber of animation with it.
Now you can say "mind=blown". I wonder what the show's animators are thinking if they became aware of that while watching this.

ReplyDeletePinkie, you so crazy.
ReplyDeleteFarmer Brown NOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!
ReplyDelete...well, That animation is sure nice and fluid!
ReplyDeleteHAHAHAHAH
ReplyDelete"We'll going to need more Get Well cards." Lmao. That was silly. Farmer Brown is best pony. <3
ReplyDeleteThe animation in this is really great!
ReplyDeleteHahaha, oh my...
ReplyDeleteahaha this is so good laughing hard now
ReplyDeletealthough im glad applejack didn't die
I thought the gunshot sounded familiar! Battlefield 1942 is a good game. Oh, and ponies.
ReplyDeleteThat was pretty good!
ReplyDeleteI was expecting something worse then that (like APPLE.MOV) because of the thumbnail.
Oh... my wow. <3
ReplyDeleteDamn, that animation was awesome!
ReplyDeleteHow did AJ survive a shotgun to the face?!
ReplyDeleteI'm really glad she's OK tho!
I laughed at a pony getting shot...im going to hell ain't I?
ReplyDeleteThat was so deeply wrong on so many levels. Laughed my ass off, though.
ReplyDelete@Marshal
Marshal...Marshall. Marshal...Marshall.
Whoa. Surreal.
Wow very nice!
ReplyDelete*looks at the names of people involved*
IAmTheGang huh? Now there's a name I haven't heard in a while.
@Jelfes
ReplyDeleteAwesome is right. Hasbro should hire the animator: with a little practice (the animation was admittedly jiggly) I'll bet they could actually help make the show.
Pinkie's eyebrows get me every time.
ReplyDelete"Ya gotta tell me these things cheesecake! All you technicolor donkeys look the same!"
ReplyDeletePinkie: "Hey, Farmer Brown!"
ReplyDeleteFarmer Brown: "Good afternoon, pumpkin pie, pizza pie, apple pie, chicken pot pie, apple cobbler, something like that." LOL
With animation of this "caliber" being produced by fans, and the sheer volume of good fanfics out there, this show will never end.
ReplyDeleteyay.
I was kinda sad when I quickly realized what this was going to turn into, but then felt better when it was just Applejack that was victimized...
ReplyDeleteand that she just took comical cartoon damage...
>.>
<.<
I thought it was okay.
ReplyDeleteUntil I saw Applejack.
BWHAHAHAHAHA
it's funny how good it was, and yet he isn't a fan
ReplyDeleteWow- this is yet another really impressive full production, this one with music and stuff. It's amazing to see this stuff begin to emerge!
ReplyDeleteLMAO! HOLY CRAP, LOL!
ReplyDeleteYow. That's some of the best animation I've seen so far from a fan-related entry. Yet they're not fans? Woah. Also, the actress performing Pinkie is amazing! I lol'd, I loved!
ReplyDeleteA shame he will more than likely not make any more, but it was great for a one shot! :D
ReplyDeleteThat was absolutley brilliant. The voices, the animation, the gag.
ReplyDeleteThis fanbase is so creative and skilled creating incredible fanworks whether it's fanart or video games or snowponies so we get kinda spoiled and take it for granted when these things pop up.
This just leaves me speechless.
Haha, that was actually pretty funny, and the animation is absolutely superb!
ReplyDeleteWas I the only one that flinched when the shot fired?
ReplyDeleteDat animation
ReplyDeleteBetter than the MAD skit.
ReplyDeleteLol, technicolor donkies.
ReplyDeleteYeah, I was expecting something much worse. Then I watched it and I remembered that they're all cartoons. Applejack got Daffy Duck'd; so hilarious.
ReplyDeleteAnd not to belabor the point, but is no one concerned that a human was just walking down the road in Ponyville, let alone holding a shotgun?
I was very, very afraid at first.
ReplyDeleteAnd then Applejack was okay. WHEW!
Laughter and merriment all around!
That animation was awesome, I was just watching the way Pinkie bounced around so smoothly! Also the voices are brilliantly accurate. Was so scared about the dude with the gun though, seeing AJ at the end was a relief!
ReplyDeleteLOL I love it
ReplyDeleteVery good animation.
ReplyDeleteGotta say i loved fluttershys lil giggle at the end, soo cute!
I love Fluttershy's giggle at the end! <3<3<3<3<3
ReplyDeleteCartoon gunpowder violence at its finest, right there!
ReplyDeleteAlso, no relation between and and the animated farmer (I kind of wish though, since then I could visit him and by extension all the ponies).

@Bobbyzero
ReplyDeleteI second that thought.
I didn't notice till the second time through the far-off background when the shot goes off. :lol:
ReplyDeleteI only have one negative thing to say - AJ would have said "y'all", not "you". Otherwise, excellently done :)
Hahaha that was pretty great, and the VA + animation was awesome. Good job!
ReplyDeleteI started giggling at AJ the exact same time FS started to giggle. i love this!
ReplyDeletePinkie's voice reminds me of Mickey!
ReplyDeleteAt least Rainbow Dash doesn't have to visit the glue factory now.
ReplyDeleteGood work! The creator put a lot of effort into this. It surprised me to learn that they are not a fan of FiM.
ReplyDeleteHaha!
ReplyDeleteAnd wow that animation! So smooth and fluid.
That was pretty great. Animation was super good, maybe a bit too "bouncy" but it was really awesome for a fanimation.
ReplyDeleteMore proof that the fandom will become self-sustaining after the show ends...
At the verge of a flu, this one took it away!
ReplyDeleteAnd dat animation... I'm speechless.
The animation is great, though you can tell the person responsible for this video is not very involved with the show.
ReplyDeleteMore importantly, that overgrown monkey just spat on Fluttershy! Some things you just don't do, and THAT is certainly such thing. I say we send him to the Moon, its the only way to be sure.
"All you stupid technicolor donkeys look the same to me!"
ReplyDeleteI lost it...
pick me up off the floor when I stop rolling
..Damn it, Pinkie. And Fluttershy and Twilight are the least responsible ponies ever.
ReplyDeleteI just looked up that Pinkie Pie VA and it's apparently the same one that's going to be in the Fighting is Magic game:
ReplyDeletehttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sfP2H_kw_9Q
Ha.
ReplyDeleteDid anypony notice that Farmer Brown spit on Fluttershy? Anypony? Just found that hilarious and wrong at the same time! Lol!
ReplyDeleteI love the animation in this. It look so bouncy kind of. Poor Fluttershy getting spit right in the face XD
ReplyDeleteThis is absolutely amazing! This might just be my new favorite thing ever, actually.
ReplyDeleteOh god, that ending... *snickers*
ReplyDeleteAnd the animation is awesome! The voices are pretty dead on (save maybe for Applejack's her's is just a little off) and the animation has a great bouncy quality to it (especially in the case of Pinkie, which is quite appropriate).
@Marshall
ReplyDeleteI know, right? Especially since my name is Marshall too...
Wow..... in all aspects....
ReplyDeleteI think I have a new favorite web animator.
A bit overly animated, but overall fantastic. The jokes were good and the characterizations were spot on considering it apparently wasn't done by a fan.
ReplyDelete*sniker snorts*
ReplyDeleteThe was amazing XD Poor Fluttershy for getting spit on
ReplyDeletesure the persons who did this animation sure they are,,Goooood!!!
ReplyDeleteAll my laughter for the day *snerk* Poor AJ. :o)
ReplyDeleteIN UR FACE^^ sorry but it need to say, and good work i wanna know what programs he/she used
ReplyDeleteI laughed at the well-washed window joke more than anything. If only I could find a pegasus recovering on the ground the next time I hear something slam into my window, instead of another dead bird. Although the detailed dust silhouette one left behind was kinda funny, since that bird flew away.
ReplyDeleteDAT ANIMATION
ReplyDeleteFluttershy Giggle <3
ReplyDelete*cant stop laughing*
ReplyDeleteNow that's how you do humans in Equestria.
ReplyDeleteI'm surprised this is getting star bombed. This is one of the best fan animations I've seen in a long time!
ReplyDeleteTechnicolor donkeys...brilliant!
The animation is kind of... wibbly wobbly. Not terrible, but way too much movement. Too much so, kept bothering me throughout. However the writing and VOs were good.
ReplyDeleteOh Farmer Brown, I'd be surprised if they let you into the Hospital with that shotgun. +1 for cartoon logic.
that was great! I loved the Looney Toons style of the actions, I hate it when other people bloody up ponies...its just gross.
ReplyDelete"All you technicolor donkeys look the same to me"
ReplyDeleteI almost fell out of my chair. Awesome video.
The voice acting in this was great, and it was funny. Good show!
ReplyDeleteNo Seth...that was exactly what I thought. *facehoof + suppressed chuckle*
ReplyDeleteThis was awesome. everything was perfect. Good Job.
ReplyDeleteHa ha, this is fabulous! And I see no one has pointed out what I consider to be one of the best lines in there:
ReplyDelete"Oh! And he has this big blue tractor, too! I've seen him racing around the yard in it at about two and a half miles per hour - SO INTENSE!"
Funny, enjoyed it... but creeped out at times by unnatural leg bending...
ReplyDeletei hope this guy makes more pony stuff> He's amazing!
ReplyDeleteHa! Yes, that was pretty great... the tag scene at the end brought it all back into silly fun.
ReplyDeleteThe end-credits made it all better! XD
ReplyDeleteThat was hilarious. Pinkie Pie being Pinkie Pie, even after the gunshot.
ReplyDeleteTechnicolor donkeys! HA!
OMG, i bucking loved this! the animation was good, the voices were great, and overall was amazing. you guys did an awesome job and i give you a hooves up ^_^
ReplyDelete*Brown spits on Fluttershy*
ReplyDeleteMe: "Let me borrow that shotgun for a sec."
Hey, this was probably the best fan animation yet. Like everyone said, the animation was a bit odd at times, but even so, the fluidity of it is much better than most. Also it was good to hear something with original lines rather than just sound clips from the show.
ReplyDeleteThe animation and voice acting were AWESOME!
ReplyDeleteWould definitely be interested to see more.
cmon , for once we got an amazing animation without blood and gore and it only got 3 stars and half ?
ReplyDeletelooney tunes style shotguns ftw
That. Voices. That. Animation 0.0
ReplyDeletea-we-so-me!!!
Ah I love this. I hope they do more.
ReplyDeleteOne of the best and funniest animation shorts I have seen to date....and the ending was hilarious, nice refrence to the Looney Tunes! I love this fandom....
ReplyDeleteThat was hilarious!
ReplyDeleteJust a re-post of what I said in the Youtube comments:

Poor AJ; I'm glad that earth ponies seem to be nigh indestructible. Great work on everything.
This guy just earned a new subscriber.
ReplyDeleteOh boy, it's Looney Toons all over again. XD
ReplyDeleteHoly shit that animation... Other than pinkie pie flopping about a bit too much, holy freaking hell that is astounding. Twilight and Fluttershy looked great!
ReplyDeleteMy eye twitched maniacally when he spat on Fluttershy, but at the same time, I was laughing at the exact same thing...I think I'll go cut myself now...
ReplyDeleteOh, and Cheerilee is best bachelorette pony.
@herpyderpy
ReplyDeleteHow else? She's made of dark matter! Bullets don't affect her.
So a pony can break their leg by flying into a window made of glass, but can survive a point blank shotgun blast to the face?
ReplyDeleteSeems legit...
I really liked this :D
ReplyDeleteWOW that animation was excellent!
ReplyDeleteOMG I forgot!
ReplyDeleteYAY FANIMATION
I can't stop breathing from the laughter!
ReplyDeleteCartoon Physics, gotta love 'em.
ReplyDelete... HAHAHAHA. Um. Popeye's face appears in the clouds around 0:41.
ReplyDeleteSo much good comedy in the last couple of days. I love it!
ReplyDeleteAt first I laughed then when I heard that gun go off my heart dropped. But to see applejack with a blackened face and her mane blown back I was joining in with Twi,Pinkie and Fluttershy laughing.
ReplyDelete*snort-spittoo*
ReplyDelete"Duh, ya' gotta tell me these things, Cheesecake!"
I LOLED.
God the voice acting is awesome
